Nice run!

How was the track? I'm thinking that with a little more VHT, you'd be able to knock another 0.2 off your 60' time.

traction was not an issue, well actually I was getting too much traction. I could not brake torque the car because it was just pushing the car even with the front wheels locked. I have a few things I am going to play with on Saturday.

The 11.4 was on the MT Street E/T's, they don't handle like the Corsas, car gets light feeling in the rear at about 110 mph.

Great run Jcart!

What PSI's are you running on the Mt's for them to feel light uptop?

Depends on the temp and conditions, I have run as low as 16psi and as high as 20psi. The night I made the 11.48 pass I was running 20psi on a perfectly prepped track.

Drag strip results are among the least impressive advantages of driving this car.
